Ivy Tech offering basic EMT training in Mooresville: The 16-week basic emergency medical studies training program begins in June and could be free for residents who qualify

Ivy Tech Community College Bloomington is offering Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) training in Mooresville this summer. Training is complete in 16 weeks and courses will be held June 4 through October 10 on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. EMT training is free with the state’s Next Level Jobs Workforce Ready Grant for students who qualify. Requirements are not income-based.

Ivy Tech EMT training prepares students to sit for the licensing exam, which is required for employment as an EMT. EMTs are first-responders and provide out of hospital emergency medical care for critical and emergent patients. They have the skills necessary to stabilize and safely transport patients for continued medical care.

Ivy Tech Bloomington’s Paramedic Science program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP).

EMT training will be held at 173 Indianapolis Rd, Mooresville, Ind.
